How to add the prerequisite package to be installed with RPM installation while packaging the RPM

I am creating a RPM package(ex test.RPM) which has a dependency of nss tools. because my test.RPM application adds CA certificate to Chromum\firefox browsers to trust my self signed certificate.So i added 

yum install nss-tools in the %prep section of the spec file.

while installing the test.RPM(yum install test.rpm) it throws an error 

Another app is currently holding the yum lock; waiting for it to exit...
  The other application is: yum

I know the reason, yum is already locked by test package.

Could anyone suggest how to add the prerequisite package to be installed with RPM installation while packaging the RPM.
